I make sure they are fully charged unhook and leave them in the equipment. If they fail in the spring they were at the end of their life anyway.

As big as you can fit without getting in the way. However, depends on how long you are staying out, and what you are doing.

The wife has been getting stuff. I've been to busy to even get out bowhunting! I hope to get out rifle hunting.....

Bravo?

:rolleyes::unsure:

See post number 6.

I pull my pontoon 20 miles each way twice a year. 1999 Jeep grand cherokee. It's not that heavy to begin with.

Yup! I totally agree! lol

Once towed a 9-n tractor on a flatbed 20 miles with a ford tempo. Never doing that again, 20mph max......yeah I was stupid....

Custom built. Most boats don't have replacement stuff like that.

Whatever happend to volenteering? lol

That is not good. Don't know what the issue is but that is a water pump, not a motor. Time to pull the motor, pickle it and start looking for the issue?

The only thing I use is seafoam. And not every season. I put it in every other year just because I can.

At a shop I worked at, the boss would mix up "snot" Wheel bearing grease, with gear lube mixed in. Slightly fluid, but sticky. Works well!

I dremeled out the crack a bit, cleaned it well and put the jb in, smoothed it with my wet fingers, then dabbed a shop rag to make it look like cast. A little paint and you cant see where the repair is. Two motors of mine that havent leaked in 5 years.

Where you at? Would be nice if people would fill out their profile so we could direct you to the proper place to look at it. Any good marine mechanic that has ABYC training should be able to figure it out. A run of the mill mechanic may not know what to look for.

If the drive oil is clean/not milky, or going low, then it's not leaking. If any of the above are present, then yes. The water is mixing with the grease.

Yeah, You have a water leak getting into the bellows, mixing with the grease that was in there and making a mess. I'm sure the gimble will fail soon, along with the u-joints. They now have water in them.

Went saturday and picked up a new to me dock, 35 footer, 120 mile round trip. Sunday went and picked up my boat from the painter, 80 miles total. Now to assemble the boat, and Do the dock in the spring.

A picture of the area you are talking about would be nice.
